Family

We speak, we talk
Yeah, we hang out a lot
And you don't use my name
Yeah, you don't use my name
You think I don't notice
How you guard your tongue
And we're always alone
Yeah, we're always alone

I thought it'd be different
I thought if anyone would understand
I thought that you would understand
But you don't

This isn't being supportive
You're acting like nothing's changed
Well, don't you know that everything's changed?
I'll never be the same again

And it's a secret you don't tell your friends
But if you ever wanna be close again
You have to accept this is who I am

I'm not your boy and I never was
I'm still your kid, yeah, you're still my dad, but I'm not your son
I'm not ashamed but I'm afraid you are
Everyone's got in line, but you've fallen behind so far

And it's a secret you don't tell your friends
But if you ever wanna be close again
You have to accept this is who I am

Don't need apologies, don't need words
Need you to show me what family is worth
'Cause from what I can see
It's not worth anything at all
